Earlier, there was a feature called Study Together in ChatGPT, which basically featured the codename “tatertot”. This is the same mode, and now it’s rolling out to all the ChatGPT users who are logged in. OpenAI says that ChatGPT users will get access in the coming weeks. Users can choose the latest study mode in ChatGPT under the tools, such as Study and learn.
By recently adding this Study Mode, it engages students to think more deeply about the problems and develop cognitive ability to solve those questions which have been asked of ChatGPT. This latest study mode has special system instructions that will encourage critical thinking, curiosity, and self-reflection. It is essentially the Socratic method of learning that guides the students. Instead of solving the problem, this mode will provide a step-by-step guide to the students for their better understanding.
Students can use this latest study mode in ChatGPT for their school homework helping, exam preparation, learning some more new things they can learn about complex topics, and generating quizzes. It breaks down all of the complex topics and offers real-life examples to explain concepts in a lucid manner.
With this mode, ChatGPT can become a student’s personalised tutor that forces the students to think and foster real learning. Note that OpenAI has not trained the latest model for study mode; instead, it only uses a custom system instruction. This company says that it plans to train a special model for learning in the future, and with step-by-step guidance, students can easily understand those difficult topics in just a few minutes, which is a pretty cool mode for the students. By this latest study mode, if the students want a detailed guide for those tricky questions, then this mode will definitely help them.
